Sunday 1st June

After the showers this morning it turned out to be a not bad day with the sun shining, not that warm though...

Martin had been out on the hills today down the bottom end (South) of Islay and thought he had a possible sighting of Dotterels, could they be nesting out there? Back on Thursday, Louise had an Osprey over Loch Gorm. Today James had a Whitethroat singing away in his garden at Mill cottage.

The rainfall here for May tallied out at 4.25" which is wetter than last year but not far of a "normal May".....
